Form guide and head-to-head
Their first and last meeting was earlier this season when Rovers beat Harrogate Town in a 1-0 win at the CNG Stadium, courtesy of a Nick Anderton goal. The sides are separated by five places and 11 points in the division so Rovers are placed as slight favourites given their home advantage and form.
On Harrogate’s side of things, they haven’t had the best last five games with them only picking up five of the 15 points available. A positive they do hold though is that they have a similar record away from home (21 points) as they do at home (22 points).
Referee
Darren Drysdale from Lincolnshire is the referee and will be assisted by Marvyn Amphlett and Andrew Laver with Kevin Howick as the fourth official.
